C on FreeBSD on EC2. Yes, the dynamic parts of the Tarsnap website are written in C.

Interesting. What are the main advantages for you to use FreeBSD over Linux?

We are doing live video streaming, mostly Java and React.

Our backend is running on Kubernetes in Google Cloud. Streaming servers are hosted in AWS, but we are preparing to move to dedicated servers.

We also use Consul for service discovery and statistics for streaming servers.

We're building/selling "enterprise" software.

Multi-tenanted single codebase supporting both SaaS and self-host (Windows, Linux, macOS).

Stack:

- EmberJS front-end

- Go backend (static binaries that embed EmberJS GUI)

- MySQL database

- AWS EC2 pulling Docker images from Docker Hub

I run a development shop in Australia and work with a lot of startups to build their MVP. This puts us in a position to recommend our preferred stack:

- Django backend

- React frontend

- Native mobile iOS/Android OR Xamarin (depends on project)

- PostgreSQL

- AWS (Elastic Beanstalk) OR Heroku

- S3

Backend: Java (phasing out), Go (phasing in), Postgres, Redis, all on Ubuntu EC2's.

Frontend: JS (TypeScript/ES6), React, ReactNative, SASS, all Webpack'ed (except RN).

I think it's a fairly light stack but am happy with it. I would use this as the starting point for pretty much every project.
